EVANSTON, Ill. NHL Jerseys Black Friday Deals . -- Roy Devyn Marble scored 14 points and No. 10 Iowa never trailed, beating Northwestern 76-50 on Saturday. Gabriel Olaseni had 14 points and 10 rebounds and Mike Gesell added 11 points for the Hawkeyes (16-4, 5-2 Big Ten), who avoided losing consecutive games for the first time this season after falling 75-67 at No. 21 Michigan on Wednesday. They shot 51.9 per cent from the field (28 of 54) and won their fourth in five games. Iowa, which outrebounded Northwestern 44-20, had nine players score. Marble, Iowas leading scorer, didnt make his first field goal until 3:08 into the second half. That was part of a 7-0 run that gave the Hawkeyes a 41-30 lead, their first double-digit advantage. Northwestern never got closer than seven points during a second half Iowa dominated 46-26. Drew Crawford had 20 points for Northwestern (10-11, 3-5), which had won three of four. Saturday was a rematch of the teams Jan. 9 game in Iowa City which the Hawkeyes won 93-67 after shooting 64.3 per cent during the second half. Iowa coach Fran McCaffery was suspended for that game after getting ejected during the Hawkeyes previous game at Wisconsin. On Saturday, McCaffery was coaching and along with Northwesterns Chris Collins wore sneakers as part of the annual Coaches vs. Cancer weekend. That first game was a turning point for Northwestern. Including the teams first matchup, the Wildcats started conference play 0-3 and were allowing an average of 81 points per game. In the next four games -- a stretch that included a win over then-No. 23 Illinois, a victory at Indiana and a double-overtime win over Purdue -- the Wildcats only gave up 51 points per game. Northwestern got Dave Sobolewski back after he missed four games (concussion), and had Crawford break the school record by playing in his 131st game and starting his 130th. He topped the marks set by John Shurna and Michael Thompson, respectively. The Wildcats shot 36.4 per cent from the field (20 of 55). Unlike the first meeting, when the Hawkeyes led 41-26 at halftime, Iowa struggled to separate from Northwestern during the first half despite making 50 per cent of its shots compared to the Wildcats 31. Iowa was in front 30-24 at halftime but at one point went more than 6 minutes between baskets. . - A well-known member of the Canadian Football League Hall of Fame will speak out against racism later this month in a southern Manitoba town thats trying to shed any image that its racist.

While Richards continues to recover from concussion-like symptoms, the Stars try to win three straight for the first time in over a month as they visit the Phoenix Coyotes, who are hoping to avoid a season-worst fourth consecutive setback this evening at Jobing. .Va. -- Brendon de Jonge rode a wave of Hokie fever to a share of the second-round lead at the Greenbrier Classic.With Mondays NHL Trade Deadline looming, teams are making decisions on whether to buy or sell and deciding which players can make the biggest difference or hold the greatest value. Check out todays trade rumours and speculation from around the NHL beat, and follow TSN.ca each day until Deadline Day for all the updates. Leafs GM Burke on Nash, goaltending Maple Leafs general manager Brian Burke was on TSN Radio 1050 on Wednesday to address the Rick Nash rumours and his clubs goaltending. "We do not have a firm offer on the table for Rick Nash," Burke told TSN Radio 1050s Cybulski & Company. "That I can assure you." The Maple Leafs goaltending has become a focal point to many after a trio of questionable goals cost the team a win against New Jersey on Tuesday. Burke would not go into specifics as to what it might cost to add a goalie, but he would concede that the team has to at least explore the market before Monday. "We havent been dabbling in that market," he said. "But certainly its something we have to explore to at least find out what the price tags are." Insider Trading TSNs Hockey Insiders Bob McKenzie, Darren Dreger and Pierre LeBrun appeared on a special version of the The Wednesday Night Hockey Quiz, and were asked three questions. The trio discussed which goaltender the Maple Leafs should target, where they expect Rick Nash to be at 3pm on Monday when the deadline is over, and which role player will be the most sought-after. When dealing with the role player, Dreger felt that Dallas Stars forward Steve Ott would be popular among teams. McKenzie spoke highly of Colorado Avalanche forward Daniel Winnik, while LeBrun believed that Buffalo Sabres forward Paul Gaustad would have a lot of interest. Greener Pastures? Jim Matheson of the Edmonton Journal reports that Philadelphia Flyers forward Jaromir Jagr believes that his friend and fellow Czech Ales Hemsky could be well served if hes dealt by the Oilers. "Maybe if he went to a different team it would be like a new start," Jagr told the Journal. "Maybe he gets 100 points." "Hess that skilled. [url=http://www.jerseysnflwholesale.us/]Wholesale NFL Jerseys. quot; Jagr, who considered signing with the Oilers three years ago before he went to Russia, played with Hemsky on the 2006 Czech Republic Olympic team. "Sometimes staying in one place wont help players...maybe thats what he needs." Matheson also believes that when Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Theo Peckham return from injury soon, the Oilers will have too many players on the roster. Matheson speculates that Peckham or Cam Barker could be moved at the deadline. Hamrlik on the Move? According to Katie Carrera of Washington Post, the Capitals could be shopping defenceman Roman Hamrlik, who was a healthy scratch on Wednesday night against the Senators. The 37-year-old is under contract through next season, with an annual salary cap hit of $3.5 million. In the report, Carrera believes that the St. Louis Blues, who have had people scouting the Capitals during recent games, could have interest. Tough Market for the Bruins? While Boston Bruins general manager Peter Chiarelli will look to help his club capture a second consecutive Stanley Cup, according to NESN.com, his job might be more difficult at the deadline this year. With Tuomo Ruutu resigning with the Hurricanes, and Antoine Vermette being dealt to the Coyotes, it doesnt seem to be a friendly marketplace for a team like the Bruins who do not want to deal any of their highly regarded prospects. Sharks Wilson remains mum on Nash Rumours David Pollack of the San Jose Mercury News spoke to Sharks general manager Doug Wilson about the Rick Nash rumours. While Wilson didnt want to comment specifically on any reports and stated that he never talks about discussions he has with other general managers. He did share some organizational philosophy. "One of the most important things we do is make this a place that players do want to play and make it an attractive destination," Wilson said. He also stated that clubs four game losing streak wont affect his decision making progress at the deadline. "You can get tricked by playing really well as well as you can by playing a poor game," stated Wilson. ' ' '
